I was thinking that Goldberg's promo would've fit with Orton better too.

But didn't the show run long or something and Drew didn't have time to actually shit on the legends?

Yeah and instead of doing some last minute script tweaks that Vince is famous for, him and the rest of creative decided to not bother the one time where it would have actually made a ton of sense to do so.

Yeah I loved that team. They got into so many hijinx on NXT.

NXT from 2011-2012 was the goods, gave the entire Superstars brigade the chance to do something.

screech 02-04-2021 11:46 AM

Didn't he have a "save the planet" gimmick at one point? Or am I thinking of someone else?

Evil Vito 02-04-2021 11:49 AM

That was fellow dreadlock performer CJ Parker (now Juice Robinson in NJPW)

Remember when Hawkins and Reks had a stripper gimmick for one night on Smackdown and then Reks quit the company the day after lol

Evil Vito 02-04-2021 12:12 PM

Lol yeah that was right as Magic Mike came out...someone probably had to explain it to Vince as he doesn’t follow pop culture.

from dreadlocks to dreads cocks... good for her

Picture your favorite performance from a movie or tv series.
Now picture Great Khali as an extra in the background of a pivotal scene (for no reason)

Sepholio 02-04-2021 04:07 PM

So Tyler Reks transitioned into a woman.

So more shite for the most part? Their Documentaries are generally good, their actual "sports entertainment" not so much.

The network was Vince's wet dream for many years before the tech came about to make it possible, seems the fad has worn off.

Steve Cutler got released by WWE today.

That would help explain why him and Wesley Blake had suddenly disappeared from Smackdown and as King Corbin's bodyguards after just a couple of weeks.

Steve Cutler gets to spend more time with Deonna Purrazzo. Poor guy.

Emperor Smeat 02-04-2021 07:41 PM

Cutler and not Ryker being the first one released from the Forgotten Sons feels a bit messed up.

Not only did Ryker and his online controversies cause the whole group to get punished, he somehow managed to remain mostly unaffected in terms of status and creative direction unlike the other two when they all returned back to WWE television.

mike adamle 02-04-2021 07:56 PM

I'm reading rumors from that rovert dude (he won't outright say it) that Vince has covid

GD 02-04-2021 07:58 PM

Or maybe he's dealing with the passing of his brother?

It's Rovert so I'm sure it's probably 2% true

yeah only brother glad to see him take time off. i did not even know vince had a brother, that is how he was kept out of the lime lite.

Emperor Smeat 02-05-2021 01:26 AM

Turns out the reason for Steve Cutler's release is due to him contracting COVID last month and Vince being pissed off over it enough that led to him being fired yesterday.

The site notes that the move was WWE’s decision and that Cutler was at the WWE Performance Center, as he was offering to bump for the PC’s “big man”. Cutler was reportedly a welcome and familiar face there and well liked. Finally, it was noted that from WWE, the “door was open” on a return later.

I just hope Steve Cutler doesn't show up on AEW and team with his brother Brandon to be the Cutler Bro's complete with main event Game of Thrones entrance robes and Triple H water bottle spits.

Even worse is the rumor of Vince got pissed Cutler's girlfriend revealed it publicly on social media while WWE much rather wants those who test positive to keep quiet unless they get permission.

They've been more petty over that situation happening than bothering to combat the COVID deniers in the company or doing a better effort enforcing their COVID policies to stop having outbreaks almost every month.

Jordan 02-05-2021 02:36 AM

The Rumble could have actually been one of the most dangerous matches of all time...

Evil Vito 02-05-2021 07:02 AM

Fucking sucks for Wesley Blake too since he was in developmental for a million years yet they feel the need to pull him off TV too.
